INAGH/KILNAMONA claimed victory in the Minor A camogie final following a replay.

Inagh/Kilnamona 2-9
Scariff/Ogonnelloe 2-4
Venue: Gurteen

It completes a rare double at minor level with Inagh/Kilnamona also claiming the hurling equivalent which was backed up by some of their players tasting Minor A football success with Ennistymon in Cusack Park on Sunday.

In what is a case of anything you can do I can do better, the girls also completed a double following St Joseph’s Miltown’s success at the end of August. In total, there was a total of eight dual players.

On the camogie front, Scariff/Ogonnelloe’s bid for a third title was thwarted by Inagh/Kilnamona in what was another memorable encounter between the clubs.

Dominance at this grade has been shared by the two clubs who account for eight of the last ten titles.

A strong final quarter pushed Inamona to victory and seal their sixth success in ten seasons with the absence of Eimear Rodgers a huge blow to the East Clare side who started on a high going four points clear after getting two goals in quick succession.

Roisin Shannon got a touch for a vital green flag for the winners on forty two minutes, she finished with 1-1 to her name and was fouled for a penalty that was superbly stopped by Nisha O’Neill.

Approaching the final quarter, they led 2-7 2-3 with Paul Queally’s charges relieved when Eva O’Halloran stopped a Danielle Beston strike at a crucial juncture.

Scorers Inagh/Kilnamona: Mary McInerney (1-2); Roisin Shannon (1-1); Ailbhe Devitt (0-3, 2f); Shauna Queally (0-2f); Cliodhna Queally (0-1)
